I'm having a few days at my sister's place in New Plymouth. We had a quick walk at the beach and managed not to get too wet on a windy rainy day! I thought it looked best in b&w.
it must have been windy here as you say - all the spray in the background! Like our coastline down here on the East Coast. But lovely flat and wide beaches here!
I've been there too - one of my last days in NZ ...
